Have you seen the new dark chocolate mint chips by Nestle? I absolutely love mint, so I knew these were right up my alley! -s is the cookie baker in our house, so he found a chocolate chocolate chip cookie recipe on Food Network, and used that recipe to make these most delicious cookies!
If you […]
These cookies were really good, although I thought the toffee kind of got lost in the cookie, so maybe add more toffee bits than the original recipe calls for. This recipe is adapted from the oatmeal toffee cookies found in the December 2008 issue of Cooking Light.
Ingredients:
3.4 ounces all-purpose flour (about 3/4 […]

If you like chocolate and mint together like I do, you’ll enjoy these cupcakes. My frosting didn’t turn out fluffy…more like marshmallow fluff, which I suspect is due to me being too impatient and not letting it beat long enough in the mixer. It still tasted delicious though.
I got this recipe from Taste and Tell, […]
I came across a black bottom cupcake recipe at Annie’s Eats (adapted from David Lebovitz). I’ve never made homemade cupcakes before (gasp!)…I guess I never realized how easy it is and how tasty they are! My mother-in-law makes a similar cupcake for Christmas, and since -s loves those I thought I’d give these a shot. […]
Here’s a super fun Halloween dessert adapted from a Halloween cookbook magazine from the grocery store check out. These turned out so great, and everyone loved them! For the tombstone writing you can purchase cookie icing in your baking aisle that comes packaged with a fine tip for writing or you can use white frosting. […]

Here is my very first Daring Baker’s Challenge! These Cheesecake Pops were fun to make and real big hit with -s’s co-workers. -s and I are kind of cheesecake snobs, and the cheesecake wasn’t our favorite…too eggy for our taste, but they are a real crowd pleaser. If we make this one […]
I’ve never attempted fudge before, but I have heard that it can be difficult to make…depending on the weather, it might not set etc. I saw a recipe on the back of a store brand marshmallow package, which gave me the inspiration to create my own version, and it was so easy to make, […]
This afternoon I had an urge to make some cookies. I looked in the pantry to see what I had on hand, and I came up with the most delicious recipe. The base recipe is Quaker’s Vanishing Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, but instead of raisins, I added coconut and white chocolate chips. I […]
